I've been gone a while. I started reading fanfiction to escape and I got sucked in an abyss.

I have no idea if someone else is hosting similar challenges. I just grabbed some of what I have hosted before.

Here's to a happy year of great reading
Jan2023: Not much has changed. Writing a fanfiction now O_o as well as reading but I bought 7 new books in December and hope to get those read soon. Crossing fingers about adding challenges (late!)

Happy Monday!

Did you have a fabulous time with BBAW? I had great plans to participate but after getting my interview up everything else kinda fell through. I did lurk, and bookmark new blog,s so I'm hoping to visit some later on.

Joined a challenge this week (RYOB read-a-thon), completed a challenge (R.I.P), and started two (Magic Kingdom and Cedar Cove). Actually, I may have completed two by the time this is posted. I finally found my "U" character! I know they're supposed to be "main or strong supporting character" but Henry goes to live with his aunt and uncle because his parents have been kidnapped. No kidnapping? No book. I think that's pretty strong support ;) Oh, his parents? .... Phil & Ursula. I thought I was going to have to read The Little Mermaid!

Hope everyone has plans for a great week.


Mailbox Monday is a place to share all the wonderful books that have come to live in your home– including paper books, e-books and audio books. Mailbox Monday was started by Marcia of The Printed Page. When Marcia was ready to move on from being the weekly host, she was kind enough to set up the Mailbox Monday Blog Tour. Check it out so you know where to go next month.

A big Thank You to Staci for hosting in August, the September host is Amused By Books (blog link, not post link).

I bought the Macomber book last week. Not sure when I'll get to read it but I enjoy each visit to Cedar Cove.
